Slowly, with Wolf’s help, Davey realizes that she must get on with her life. But when will she be ready to leave the past behind and move toward the future? Will she ever stop hurting?
Reviews
"Teary" Eyes
5By Concerned CapitalistPerhaps one of Judy Blume's best works. For those that wish to learn of death, and the sorrow that accompanies it, I recommend this book. To those who want a realistically driven story with characters as sympathetic and life like as its author I also recommend this book. I personally have lost several family members, and despite the years that have passed since those losses I feel that this story of a young girl from California has somehow given me an iota of closure. Thank you Judy Blume, for giving us a writing that comes directly from the heart. "The eye is the window of the soul..." Hiram Powers (1805 - 1873)Love!
